Hey Hoser, So you rode 43,000 miles in one day? August 9th 2010? (08/09/10) Of course I could be wrong, it might be September 8th 2010... Brits!

When are coming south? I almost have two bikes again.

Denis tongue firmly in cheek!

Purchased at an estate sale a few years ago and now there's no where to store or use it. Floral motif embroidery, curved back, wood legs. Outside on the side walk. Can text me for address if you'd like to pick it up. (207)205-3426

A friend of mine put 140,000 Km on his before upgrading. No major maintenance at all, especially not to the motor. Just some bling to pretty it up. He upgraded as he wanted a sporter bike, and couldn't keep two bikes.

He thinks the motors on an ST2 only get worn in at 40,000 Km. My Multistrada certainly improved after 30,000 Km. If you love the bike, keep it until you can't ride it any more, when you're 90 years old or so. ;-)

This is good news guys keep this up and I may not trade the bike in I do love it and every time I take it for a ride I still smile. The issue is for next spring I intend to do a lap of america. I want to go from NY to Ca and back north and south routes I guess I am a little afraid of being stranded.---

Does anyone have a working Metro PCS phone that I may have? maybe you have upgrades or changed your phone service provider and have your old phone and accessories taking up space. Please don't throw it away. I will happily pick up promptly.

Does anyone have a good condition patio furniture set and accessories you no longer need/want and are looking to get rid of this year? I was hoping for at least a nice patio table,four good chairs and an umbrella. If you have something, I will happily give it a good and useful new home. Maybe you're moving and don't want to take it with you. Maybe you just don't have the space for the one you have. Or, maybe you simply want to replace the patio set you have. Whatever the case, I will pick up promptly at your convenience. Thanks Everybody!!

I've got about 45000 miles on my '00 with 43000 of them in 08/09/10 and nary a problem. Still runs strong(at least as strong as an ST2 can!). A buddy and I checked the valves after the last 10000 miles and didn't have to replace a single shim. So far it's just getting better! I'm thinking I can probably get another 40000 out of her,no problem. Although i probably shouldn't tempt fate....
